Highlights

Whenever you see two speakers in the prompt for an LR question, you’re probably thinking, “Oh, it’s an Agree or Disagree question, right?” Not so fast! Tonight, Kevin and the class worked through two questions that seemed like the parties disagreed with each other, but in fact, the LSAT was asking us Necessary Assumption and Strengthen questions. Kevin stressed the importance of not focusing on question types. Rather, focus on performing the same fundamental skills no matter what question you attempt: read carefully, understand the argument (if there is one), find the conclusion and premises, and evaluate the argument’s validity as a whole.
